Speaking in the House of Lords on 20 January 2025

Debate

Mental Health Bill [HL]

Contribution

I remember a father showing me what happened to his adult son, who was a very able artist. He was misdiagnosed with schizophrenia, and I have seen the paintings that this man produced after somebody had tried to go through the list to find the right drug for him. It is a scandal; that is why I believe that this should be included in the Bill.
